| Description |
English: Ascent of Coniston Old Man (13) Alfred Wainwright (AW) describes the various ascents of The Old Man of Coniston, at 2633 feet, in his unique and thorough style; detailed both in text and drawings. Via Church Beck, AW quotes a distance of 2.5 miles, and 2450 feet of ascent. Very much the Tourist Route, and attempted by walkers of all abilities, the summit gives superb views on a clear day. With this series of photographs, I have attempted to show the route as it would be seen by the walker; looking initially towards the summit, but as the summit disappears from sight and the walker is faced with a steeper face of rock and meandering paths, some views back down the climb in the direction of Coniston.
I used the Coniston Tourist Information office as a start point, and have added the {camera} times for each photograph, as this information may be of interest to potential walkers who are not familiar with the route. View from above Low Water. A small part of Levers Water can be seen towards the centre of picture, and Wetherlam is the peak on the skyline in the centre. {12.26}. http://www.wainwright.org.uk/ |
